Definitions

  • the present invention relates to modular bone implants.
  • EP 0 946 836 A1 describes a tibial component of a knee prosthesis comprising a tray and a keel.
  • the present invention provides a modular implant with a mechanism for securing the modular components together. Also described is a set of instruments for holding and assembling the modular components together.
  • the implant and instruments are suitable for any type of surgical approach. However, the implant and instruments have features that facilitate minimally invasive surgical procedures.
  • the present invention is applicable to any bone implant in which modularity is advantageous.
  • Examples include joint prostheses for the knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle, and wrist.
  • Such prostheses are implanted by first making an incision near the joint to access the joint space, cutting away the articulating bone ends to be replaced, and seating the prostheses on and/or in the cut bone ends.
  • FIGS. 1-8 depict an illustrative tibial knee prosthesis used to describe the various aspects of the invention.
  • a tibial prosthesis 2 includes separate tray 10, keel 40, and stem 80 components able to be joined together to form a desired joint prosthesis configuration for replacing the articular surface of the proximal tibia.
  • the tray 10 includes generally planar top 12 and bottom 14 surfaces.
  • the top surface 12 is configured to receive a bearing surface (not shown), such as a polyethylene bearing surface, as is known in the art.

  • the press fit allows the components to slide together in tight frictional engagement to create a fluid-tight seal and strong resistance to dislocation.
  • the practicalities of machining result in a press-fit having a band, or area, of contact whereas a taper typically has line contact between the mating parts.
  • the press-fit therefore provides a better seal and is more likely to prevent material from migrating across the press-fit boundary.
  • the press-fit locking arrangement is not dependent on precise axial positioning between the components and therefore allows them to be positioned axially at a desired location, once initial press-fit engagement has been achieved.
  • the junction also utilizes a taper engagement which provides for centering of the components during assembly and a positive stop to seating as the tapered portions bottom on one another. When the taper is fully seated, it provides increased bending strength to the junction due to the axial distance between the press fit and taper contacts. As shown in FIG. 4 , the press-fit 28, 52 and tapered 30, 54 portions are spaced apart axially as far as possible to maximize the bending strength of the junction.
  • the illustrative taper is greater than 3° to facilitate manufacturing of a taper with a predictable seating depth.
  • the taper can be a locking taper to provide further locking strength. Because the press-fit permits continued axial translation during assembly after it is engaged, the tapered portion of the junction can be locked after the press-fit has been engaged.
  • a locking taper locks the junction axially and rotationally due to high frictional forces.

If the handles 622, 630 are held loosely, the pivot handle 630 will swing away from the stationary handle 622 as the nipple 654 of the engagement member 646 presses against the bottom of the counter bore 96 in the tray 10.
  • This separation of the handles 622, 630 is a result of the engagement member 646 sliding back along stationary handle shaft 624. As it moves back, it pivots the pivot block 636 and thus the pivot handle 630 about the fulcrum 640. By connecting the pivot block 636 via the elongate connecting link 638, the fulcrum 640 is permitted to move up and down slightly to prevent binding of the mechanism.
  • the engagement end 626 securely engages the keel 40
  • the handles are brought together to seat the keel 40 and tray 10 components. Forcing the handles together moves the engagement member 646 outwardly relative to engagement end 626.
  • the nipple 654 presses against the tray 10 and the engagement end 626 of the stationary handle prevents the keel 40 from moving. The resulting oppositely directed forces on the tray 10 and keel 40 seat the tray 10 and keel 40 tightly together.
  • engagement member 646 and engagement end 626 are advantageous since it uniformly loads the junction with a centrally aligned force through the portal 66 and a uniform annular force against the shoulder counter bore 96.
  • the axial arrangement of the handles is advantageous in that it allows for an elongate narrow tool. This configuration facilitates entry into narrow confines such as when the tool is used to seat implant components in-situ.
  • the axial handle arrangement allows for large seating forces to be generated due to the relatively long distance from the grips 628, 632 to the fulcrum 640 and the relatively short distance from the fulcrum 640 to the connecting pin 650.
  • the axial arrangement further contributes to high force capacity since a two-handed grip can be employed to make use of the entire upper body strength of the user if necessary.
  • the amount of deflection of the pivot handle shaft 633 relative to the pointer 662 is a function of the amount of force applied to the handles and consequently is a function of the opposing forces applied to seat the tray 10 and keel 40.
  • the scale 665 provides a convenient way to measure handle deflection. When the pointer 662 is aligned with the indicia mark 668 on the post 667 a predetermined force is applied. When the junction assembly tool is not in use, the pointer 662 is housed in the channel 664 which protects against damage to the pointer and its surroundings.
  • the assembly tool 600 is removed.
  • the bolt 92 may now be inserted through the first hole 426 in the tray holder 400, through the inner bore 26 of the boss 18, through the portal 66, and into the threaded bore 90 of the stem to draw and hold the components together.
  • the tray holder 400 allows the user to impart a counter-torque on the tray 10 while the bold is tightened to prevent the implant from rotating out of position.
  • Bone screws may also be inserted through the fixation holes 36 in the tray and threaded into the proximal tibia 214.
  • the second hole 428 in the tray holder head 406 allows access to one of the fixation holes 36 that would otherwise be covered.
  • FIGS. 24 and 25 illustrate an adapter 800 to permit the tool to be used for unseating the components.
  • the nipple 654 on the second end 652 of the engagement member 646 presses against the counter bore 96 to seat the components. If the handles are then moved apart, the nipple 654 retracts away from the counter bore 96 since the pressing engagement of the nipple 654 with the counter bore 96 is not bi-directional. This is in contrast to the bi-directional engagement of the threaded engagement 627 of the stationary handle 622 with the threaded portal 66 of the keel.
  • the adapter 800 allows the second end 652 to engage the tray 10 in upward pulling relation.
  • the adapter 800 has a generally plate-like body having a dovetail cutout 804 complimentary to the tray 10 dovetail 460.
  • the adapter further includes a threaded through bore 806 that aligns with the counter bore 96 of the tray 10. In use, the adapter 800 is slipped onto the tray 10 with the adapter dovetail 804 underneath and engaging the tray dovetail 460. The threaded through bore 806 of the adapter 800 aligns with the counter bore 96 of the tray 10.
  • the threaded engagement end 626 of the stationary handle 622 of the assembly tool 600 is inserted through the through bore 806 and threaded into the portal 66 between the first 50 and second 64 axial bores of the keel 40.
  • the threads 656 of second end 652 of the engagement member 646 are threaded into the threaded through bore 806 in the adapter 800. Since the end 626 of the stationary handle 622 passes through the threaded through bore 806, it prevents the adapter 800 from sliding away from and disengaging the dovetail 460. As the handles 622, 630 are pulled apart, the engagement member 646 is lifted relative to the engagement end 626 of the stationary handle 622.
  • the engagement member 646 transmits this lifting force to the adapter 800 through the threads 656 to the threaded through bore 806.
  • the adapter 800 presses upwardly on the tray dovetail 460 while the stationary handle 622 presses downwardly on the keel 40 thus disassembling the tray 10 and keel 40.
  • an incision is made in the knee joint.
  • an incision is made that avoids compromising the soft tissue of the suprapatellar pouch.
  • resection instruments are introduced through the incision to prepare the proximal tibial bone and form a keel receiving recess.
  • only the minimum amount of bone required to provide a stable flat surface on the tibia is removed.
  • the illustrative modular tibial component has a low profile. Because of this low profile and modularity, the incision can be quite small and need only be large enough to allow passage of the individual components.
  • a tray component having an overall height less than 18mm can be inserted through such a minimally invasive surgical incision and engage the tibia where the minimum amount of bone has been removed.
  • the keel component of the present invention can be manipulated into the prepared joint space because it lacks the large top surface of the tray.
  • the low profile and modularity of the components permit the patella to remain in its anatomic orientation relative to the femur to further reduce the trauma experienced by the joint during surgery and aid recovery and ultimate outcome from the procedure.
  • the keel is manipulated through the incision and placed into the recess.
  • the tray is then manipulated through the incision and engaged with the keel.
  • the tray and keel holders facilitate manipulating the components into the prepared space and may be used to indicate the component orientations even if the components themselves are hidden from view
  • the assembly instrument is engaged with the tray and keel and activated to draw the components together to engage the press-fit and seat the modular junction.
